Significant carbonate burial in The Bahamas seagrass ecosystem

Environmental Research Letters
Seagrass meadows store significant amounts of carbonate (CaCO _3 ) in sediment, contributing to coastal protection but potentially offsetting their effectiveness as carbon sinks.

Sediment properties influence seagrass sedimentary carbon stocks, challenging uniform blue carbon accounting

Frontiers in Marine Science
Seagrass meadows are increasingly recognised as important blue carbon ecosystems, yet large uncertainties in regional sedimentary organic carbon (Corg) stocks limit their inclusion in greenhouse gas accounting.

Seagrass Meadow Condition Assessment: A Case Study of Seagrass Meadows in Pulau Banyak District, Aceh Singkil

Jurnal Biologi Tropis
Seagrass beds are one of the coastal ecosystems that have an important role in maintaining the balance of the marine environment. Indonesia is known for its rich seagrass species but not much has been reported, especially in Aceh waters.This study aims to identify and analyse the distribution and condition of seagrass health through the percentage ...

A sentinel watching over inter-tidal seagrass phenology across Western Europe and North Africa

Communications Earth & Environment
Seagrasses are marine flowering plants that form extensive meadows from the inter-tidal zone up to ~50 m depth. As biological and ecological Essential Biodiversity Variables, seagrass cover and composition provide a wide range of ecosystem services ...

First Report on the Distribution and Extension of Seagrass Meadows in Quitasueño Coral Bank, Southwestern Caribbean

Acta Biológica Colombiana
Seagrass beds constitute one of the world’s most productive marine ecosystems and are a source of food and shelter for a wide variety of species. The largest extension of seagrass meadows in the Seaflower Biosphere Reserve (Seaflower BR) is found around
